Congratulations to Jennifer Nordell: #1 in all-time points!

:mega: Jennifer Nordell has attained the #1 slot on the all-time points leaderboard! :trophy:

For anyone not familiar with Jennifer, she's a Forum moderator and prolific contributor, multiple blog article author, and is occasionally mentioned in episodes of The Treehouse Show.

So congratulations. Way to go! :+1:
A little celebration might be in order — :beers: perhaps or alternative of your choice.

Thank you very much! However, I would like to point out that rankings are very fickle things and Jason Anders is a particularly formidable competitor. He also happens to be just a terrific guy.

But I would not have a fraction of the knowledge I have now if it weren't for the teachers here at Treehouse, and everyone who is a part of this Community. Yes, I answer questions. I do so to the best of my ability, but I don't get them all correct all the time. What I almost always do is learn by answering questions. I've learned how to debug others' code, debug my own, communicate effectively, draw parallels, find clever analogies, and explain concepts. I have answered questions where I am 110% positive I've learned more by answering the question than the person who originally asked it :smiley:

None of this would have been possible without this terrific platform! So my thanks go out to all my fellow students and the entirety of the Treehouse staff for making this a truly amazing place to learn.

It may not have lasted long, but it's like scaling a mountain — just reaching the peak is the accomplishment.
It's not important that you stay there.

Congrats Jennifer Nordell! You are awesome (: If there was a team which included all the members of Treehouse (excluding Treehouse Teachers! Sorry guys lol), you'd be our Team Lead. Planning, Motivating and guiding all of us. (:

Yayyy, Jennifer! I think it may have been one of your articles that got me into answering questions funnily enough. For those reasons.. to learn.

Golly, it looks like I managed to reach the top of the heap myself just now! Just a year ago I would have bet that would never happen. I suppose I better enjoy it before Jason and Jennifer leap-frog me. :wink:
